Marseille, Cassis and the Calanques
... in 1864. We drive along the coast and into the Calanques National Park. Eventually we reach the village of Cassis. This is a very pretty village based around a small harbour full of yachts and surrounded by restaurants. It sits below some massive cliffs which Marie says are the highest in Europe. It is clearly very popular with both tourists and locals. The streets and beach are packed. We get on a small boat. This takes us into three of the Calanques. We are ...

Speed touring in Marseilles
... The Marina is sooooo crammed with boats I reckon one could walk from one to the other across to the other side without getting your feet wet. We make it up to the fort, overlooking the marina and town in search of the tunnel that apparently links both sides of the port. We ask for directions from two guys having a smoko, who inform us that the tunnel is for cars, not persons, and before I can remind the husband of 'stranger danger' in ...
Paris in the springtime. . .And France in the rain

Professor Idrisa Pandit was one of nine outstanding women in Waterloo Region who were honoured at a ceremony last week to recognize their contributions to the community. She was named winner in the Community Service category for being a "tireless educator, organizer and social justice worker with a strong commitment to empowering marginalized women. She has organized panel discussions and workshops on faith, diversity, environmental sustainability, mental and physical health, trauma, and creating safer families." Professor Pandit said she was surprised, honoured, and humbled by the award. "I was very grateful but felt a bit awkward as I do not like public attention. My community work is a passion and I believe in change through action and engagement, not just theory. I am aware of so many other wonderful and courageous women who do a lot and never get recognized. So this win for me is a win for all those silent workers who go unnoticed and unrecognized."

Professor Kristina Llewellyn has been invited to speak in a panel discussion that will be recorded for broadcast on BBC World Service's "The Forum". Moderated by BBC's diplomatic correspondent Bridget Kendall, this panel discussion will feature prominent international thinkers as they discuss and debate the Truth and Reconciliation Commission report that concluded that residential schooling was "cultural genocide." It will ask questions about the healing process between victims and aggressors, what role education has to play, how to examine reconciliation through a restorative lens, opening old wounds, scientific approaches to trauma, and the responsibility inherited by future generations. Professor Llewellyn will join the Chair of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission of Canada The Honourable Justice Murray Sinclair and Research Fellow in Psychiatry at McLean Hospital's Neurobiology of Fear Laboratory Torsten Klengel.

I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Keenan & Associates (Torrance, CA) in December 2013.
Had a great experienced. Recruiter contacted me via Linked In, had a telephone interview, then was invited to come onsite for an interview, then a 2nd interview and got offered the job within 2 weeks. Great company, great employees, I'm so glad I was contacted.
Interview Questions
- Good question was when they asked me, "If you got hired, loved everything about this job, and are paid the salary you asked for, what kind of offer from another company would you consider?" Answer Question

I applied online. The process took a week. I interviewed at Keenan & Associates (Torrance, CA) in September 2013.
I had a great experience from the start when I applied online, and got a call from the Recruiter, then interviewed in Torrance. The Recruiter was great, she made me feel comfortable and asked very good questions. She has such a warm personality, and it shows she loves her job. It was quick from the time I had a phone interview and a face to face interview. The office was new, the receptionist was pleasant, and it seems everyone gets along great, like a family. This is a company I want to work for.
Interview Questions
- Under what conditions do you do your best work? Answer Question
- Accepted OfferPositive ExperienceAverage Interview
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Keenan & Associates (Torrance, CA) in September 2013.
I had a 1:1 interview with HR mgr and controller @ jobsite. Then there were skill and personality test online you need to complete. After the test, the HR recuiter called me for an another phone interview before I received my offer. Total interview experience was very nice and quick. You will know the end result within one week period.
Interview Questions
- There is no unexpected questions. They asked about your job experience, your skill level, your job expectation, and the most difficult/discrepancy you had with past job experience, etc. The interviewers are friendly and very open to answer any questions you have about the position or company. Answer Question
- Accepted OfferNegative ExperienceDifficult Interview
I applied online. The process took 3+ months. I interviewed at Keenan & Associates (Torrance, CA) in May 2013.
After preliminary interview with HR, an on-line computer skills and personality test were administered. Many interviews followed with multiple parties over the next several weeks. Entire process was very long and drawn out.
Interview Questions
- Questions were primarily focused on experience, few if any behavior based questions. 1 Answer
- Accepted OfferPositive ExperienceEasy Interview
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Keenan & Associates (Torrance, CA) in May 2013.
Very basic and rudimentary interview. Comfortable and friendly environment. The process was a one on one format in the HR office with the director of recruiting. I was referred by a personal friend who happened to work for the company. I was able to complete the whole interview and paperwork process in under two days.
Interview Questions
- Tell us about a time you felt discouraged in your work? Answer Question
- No OfferAverage Interview
I applied online. The process took 4+ weeks. I interviewed at Keenan & Associates (Torrance, CA) in June 2012.
Responded to a job posting on company website. Contacted two weeks later by in house recruiter for prescreen phone interview and set interview date for the following week with actual hiring manager. Two weeks later interviewed with VP of marketing and Sr. VP. In house recruiter is HR and the delay from initial contact to prescreen is long. I had a set day and time for the prescreen and did not receive a call until 2 hours past the set scheduled time. If you do not get the job the HR department will call with a canned but nice speech. I really feel the hiring manager should make the call not HR particularly when you are in the final cut.
Interview Questions
- You will have to take an Omnia Test in which Omnia will provide the hiring company additional questions specific to your profile. Answer Question
- Accepted OfferPositive ExperienceAverage Interview
I applied online. The process took 2+ months. I interviewed at Keenan & Associates.
Three interviews with HR, manager and team colleague, personality, word and excel skills test. They want to make sure your personality is a good fit with the Keenan Culture.
Interview Questions
- Questions were pretty basic. Situational and delving into skillset. Answer Question
Helpful (2)Declined OfferNegative ExperienceEasy Interview
I applied through other source. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Keenan & Associates in February 2011.
the interview was planned and confirmed by their HR. However, the HR person I was to meet with took a long lunch and I waited for about 1 hr and 30 minutes for her to return. Then I sat in her office for another 30 minutes. If you get thirsty waiting you will be directed to a small deli within the same complex to purchase some. On my way out the building I ran into several of their employees milling around outside in 2 groups, one group was speaking in Spanish. this peaked my curiosity and I asked them if they worked for Keenan they said yes that they were claims assistants. I had to request that they repeat several times as their English was so poor it was difficult to understand them.
Interview Questions
- There were no difficult questions. Most were inquiring as to who I knew in the industry. Answer Question
Reasons for Declining
The interviewer never apologized for keeping me waiting, and in the middle of the interview took a personal call and after about 10 min on the phone I was asked to return to the reception area. A half hour later I was called back into the interview. Again no mention of an apology. The lack of courtesy and unprofessional manner was a huge indicator as to how their employees are treated and it is unacceptable. Also the thought of having an assistant, on legal claims, who barely speaks English is worrisome and tells me I would be doing their job as well as my own.

FOXBORO — When it comes to comparing tight ends, Rob Gronkowski and Jason Witten often come to mind as two of the very best in the game.
But to players on the Patriots defense, it's more about contrast than comparison.
"Gronk obviously, he's Gronk," edge rusher Rob Ninkovich said. "He's a different species [with] his length and the things he's able to do. That's what makes him so special.
"[They're] two great great tight ends that have different characteristics in terms of build and the things they're able to do."
Linebacker Dont'a Hightower figures to cross the path of Witten a few times on Sunday.
"He's just a good tight end," Hightower said. "He's does what's asked of him and he does it well. There's not too many things that you can point out about his game that's not elite. He's been playing for a long time and he's always been one of the very premier tight ends in the league. So we definitely respect him and what he does for the Cowboys.
"He's just really good at what he does, that's blocking, that's getting out down the field. Honestly, there's not that many real tight ends in the league that can actually do both. You don't see ones that block and [catch]. You just see one or the other. He's good at both."
To Hightower, comparing Gronk and Witten is like comparing Tom Brady with another great quarterback in the league.
"They're different players," Hightower said. "That's hard. It's like Tom and Aaron Rodgers, those are two different guys. But it definitely helps going against somebody like Gronk, that's big like Witten and that can move just as good or better than Witten. We have a lot of good guys that help us out and give us looks like that."
Here's what you have to know when it comes to Sunday's Patriots-Cowboys contest:
Over the course of the first three games, New England hasn't had a back hit the 100-yard mark, but when asked to respond, the group as a whole has done well when it comes to moving the chains. Dion Lewis (30 carries, 146 yards, 2 TDs) hasn't been overwhelming, but has done well when it comes to taking it outside or going between the tackles. And in the Week 3 win over the Jags while the Patriots were looking to churn the clock and grind down their opponent, LeGarrette Blount executed as well as any back could in that circumstance, finishing with 18 bruising carries for 78 yards and three touchdowns. The two have a nice complementary relationship, and should get the bulk of the carries against the Cowboys. Dallas is slightly better than average when it comes to stopping the run — the Cowboys allow an average of 91.8 rushing yards per game, 9th in the league. (Those numbers are slightly skewed because DeMarco Murray and the Eagles only got seven yards on the ground against them in Week 2. The other three games, Dallas' opponents all got at least 99 rushing yards as a team.) The guy who did the best job gashing them was Devonta Freeman in Atlanta, who had 30 carries for 141 yards and three touchdowns against the Cowboys. While they may not be in the same neighborhood, there are plenty of similarities between Freeman and Lewis — both are undersized backs who thrive as multidimensional options in both the running and passing game. If the Patriots can spring Lewis like the Falcons did two weeks ago against Dallas, it could be a big day for the New England ground game.
Make no mistake — Tom Brady (96-for-133, 72 percent, 1,112 yards, 9 TDs, 0 INTs) wants to scorch the Cowboys. The quarterback obviously wanted to win before, but his reaction to the comments from Greg Hardy this week (including the fact that he cut his weekly presser short) was an indication that if he and the rest of the New England passing game has the opportunity, he'll look to embarrass Dallas for what happened. (The fact that Jerry Jones came out as a big supporter of Roger Goodell in the wake of Deflategate is also a pleasant coincidence, one which also figures into the discussion here.) While there's always an obviously emphasis on getting the ball in the hands of difference-makers like Rob Gronkowski and Julian Edelman every week — and this is no exception — this contest sets up to be a big opportunity for the likes of Lewis as a potential pass catcher. As we wrote here, the Cowboys are one of the worst teams in the league when it comes to slowing backs in the passing game, and given the fact that Lewis was one of the best pass-catching running backs in the game over the first three contests of the year, this is a winnable matchup for New England. Look for the Patriots to try and get Lewis in space as much as possible with two-back sets that feature him in the slot or split wide against a linebacker. Given Dallas' issues in this area the first four games of the season, it's certainly a point of emphasis for the Patriots' offense this week.
This is probably the best chance Dallas has when it comes to winnable matchups. The Cowboys have an excellent offensive line, and while some of the stats need to be placed in context — many of the yards were against nickel and dime packages — through three games, the Patriots have yielded an average of 117 rushing yards per game, 24th in the league. (That includes a league-worst 4.9 yards per carry.) Dallas is averaging 107.8 rushing yards per game, 16th in the league. While the Cowboys don't necessarily have an elite stable of running backs, Joseph Randle will get the majority of the touches for the Dallas running game against the Patriots. The 6-foot, 204-pounder has averaged 3.9 yards per carry on 59 chances in four games this year, as well as four rushing touchdowns. Veteran Darren McFadden doesn't bring the thunder like he used to, but he's been a decent backup for the Dallas running game through the first four games (32 carries, 113 yards, 1 TD). Dallas wants to be able to run the ball, control the clock and keep the game a relatively low-scoring affair. That starts with a steady and consistent performance from its ground game, especially in the early going.
The happiest guy in Massachusetts this week? Bradley Fletcher. Not that he'd be going head to head with Dez Bryant on Sunday, but the fact that Bryant isn't in the lineup will allow the New England secondary to breathe a little easier. (For some backstory, Google "Bradley Fletcher" and "Dez Bryant." Just make sure the kids are out of the room when you watch that old Cowboys-Eagles footage.) In his place, the Cowboys don't really have a default No. 1 wide receiver, but they've relied pretty heavily on the great tight end Jason Witten, who is still rolling at 33 years old. The 6-foot-5, 257-pounder, who had a nine-year stretch between 2004 and 2012 when he averaged 86 receptions and almost 1,000 yards a season, has always been key to the success of the Dallas offense, but even more so now with Bryant and Romo on the shelf. Through four games this year he has 25 catches on 31 targets for 238 yards and a pair of touchdowns. On Sunday, expect linebacker Jamie Collins to spend a lot of time trying to nullify the impact of Witten in the passing game. Terrance Williams is probably the closest thing they have to a lead dog at the receiver position right now, as the 6-foot-2, 208-pounder out of Baylor has 12 catches on 27 targets for 193 yards and a pair of touchdowns. (While their matchup won't be exclusively man-to-man throughout the contest, Williams and Malcolm Butler will likely line up opposite each other for much of the afternoon.) Undersized Cole Beasley (18 catches, 21 targets, 174 yards) has also done well picking up some extra targets in the wake of the recent stretch of injury. But at the end of the day, it's still Brandon Weeden (45-for-59, 76 percent, 551 passing yards, 2 TDs, 1 INT) at the controls. Measuring a quarterback with wins and losses and can be a dicey proposition, but there's a reason he's lost 10 in a row. Unless he gets a big performance out of his running game on Sunday, that streak should stretch to 11 in a row.
Other than Stephen Gostkowski — who is 7-for-7 on field goal attempts, including 3-for-3 from 40 to 49 yards, and is 14-for-14 on extra points — the Patriots haven't really utilized their specialists. Ryan Allen is on pace to punt less than any starting punter in the history of the game, while New England only has one kick return all season. When it comes to coverage on punts and kicks, it's been good, and the same should be the case on Sunday against Dallas. The Cowboys' specialists can be described as above average: Dallas kicker Dan Bailey is 6-for-6 on field-goal attempts and 11-for-11 on extra-point attempts. Meanwhile, punter Chris Jones is 14th in the league in punting average (46.5 per attempt) and 10th in net average (41.9 per attempt). Nine of his 17 punts have been dropped inside the 20-yard line. After the injury to Lance Dunbar, it's expected that rookie receiver Lucky Whitehead and McFadden will be in the mix when it comes to working as a kick returner Sunday against the Patriots, while Beasley (3.6 yards per return) will work as the primary punt returner. (Given the fact that he's second in the league in fair catches with nine and that the Patriots punt coverage units are one of the best in the league, don't expect a ton of action here.)
THE PATRIOTS ARE IN TROUBLE IF … Dallas is able to get things cranked up early on the defensive side of the ball, get the huge crowd into it and get some sort of offensive traction. The return of Hardy and linebacker Rolando McClain from suspension will provide the defense with a boost, and if Hardy is able to get after the quarterback in the early going via pressure up the middle against the young interior of the New England offensive line, that would be the first step in allowing the Cowboys to pull the upset. If Dallas is then able to complement that with some steady and sustained drives behind what Bill Belichick referred to as the best offensive line in football, that would certainly set the stage nicely for the Cowboys.
THE COWBOYS ARE IN TROUBLE IF … the Patriots are able to take command right out of the gate, build a double-digit lead and force Dallas to throw to get back into the game. At this point, the strength of the Cowboys' offense is in the run game, and if they have to abandon that because of an early deficit, the Patriots will have them exactly where they want them. Bottom line? If Weeden ends up throwing the ball more than 25 times, that should bode well for New England.
BY THE NUMBERS 100 — Sunday will mark the 100th consecutive regular-season start at quarterback for Brady. Brady will become the first quarterback in the history of the game to twice start at least 100 consecutive games — his initial string ran from 2001 through the 2008 opener, when he went down with a knee injury that would ultimately sideline him for the rest of that year. He picked it up again at the start of the 2009 season, starting a streak that still stands. For the record, his string is currently the fourth longest among all signal-callers: Eli Manning (171 consecutive starts), Philip Rivers (148) and Joe Flacco (116) are the only ones who top Brady.
UNDER-THE-RADAR PERFORMER: Let's get the obvious out of the way — on Sunday, you are going to hear a lot about how Beasley and Edelman are similar for a few reasons, not the least of which is the fact that they are both white, undersized slot receivers who wear No. 11. (For the record, Edelman was a seventh-round pick, while Beasley was undrafted.) The 5-foot-8, 174-pound Beasley doesn't have the impact of someone like Edelman, but he's seen an uptick in targets this season for a few reasons, not the least of which is that he's one of the few Dallas skill position players who has managed to stay healthy. He has 18 catches on 21 targets for 174 yards through four games. While he isn't an overwhelming offensive presence, he needs to be accounted for, regardless of who is under center for the Cowboys.
QUOTE OF NOTE: "I don't really care about his personal feelings." — Brady, responding to questions about Hardy's comments on his wife and her sister from earlier in the week.

It's Week 5 of the NFL season and there are some great matchups on tap. Before we get into this week's picks though, let's take a quick look back at the top performers from Week 4. It's interesting to note the week-to-week variances in overall scoring. In Week 3, six of our seven hosts had lineups that finished with more fantasy points than our first place finisher this past week. It's very possible that Week 3 was just an aberration and now we've reverted back to the norm but the high scoring totals sure were fun!
Speaking of this past week's first place finisher, that title belongs to Jerry Thornton. He put together a robust, well-rounded lineup with six of his players accumulating between 14 and 20 points. Thornton's 141 points out-paced Davidson (130), Hackett (127), and Minihane (121) for the top spot in Week 4.
Last week's feature player, Buffalo running back Karlos Williams, once again found pay dirt though this time it was through the air on his way to a solid 16 points. At least one featured player has found the end zone every week this season and all have recorded double-digit fantasy points.
That brings us to this week's featured players, and the first is easy. New England quarterback Tom Brady has been the top fantasy quarterback all season and there's no reason to believe anything will be different this week in Dallas. Typically when given an extra week to prepare coming off a bye, Brady and Bill Belichick have rolled over the competition. The Dallas defense has given up an average of 322 yards and two touchdowns over the last two weeks to Matt Ryan and Drew Brees, so expect Brady to meet or exceed those numbers on Sunday afternoon. The second featured player this week is St. Louis running back Todd Gurley. After taking it slow to start the season coming off his injury at Georgia, Gurley broke out in the second half last week. For the game he finished with 146 yards on just 19 carries. The first-round pick should continue where he left off this week against a Green Bay defense that allows over 100 yards on the ground on average.

The Patriots made a minor move to their practice squad on Friday. The team signed offensive lineman Chris Barker and released rookie offensive lineman Sean Hickey.
Here is a portion of the release from the team:
Barker, 25, has had two stints so far in 2015 on the New England practice squad. He originally joined the Patriots when he was claimed off waivers from Miami on Sept. 1, 2013. The 6-foot-2, 300-pounder, entered the NFL as a rookie free agent with Miami out of Nevada on May 3, 2013. He played in four games as a rookie in 2013 with the Patriots. Last season, he spent the majority of the year on the New England practice squad before being signed to the 53-man roster for a two-game stint in October.
Hickey, 24, was signed to the Patriots practice squad on Oct. 1. He originally entered the NFL as a rookie free agent with New Orleans out of Syracuse on May 4, 2015. The 6-foot-6, 306-pounder, was released by the Saints at the end of training camp and spent one week on the Saints' practice squad before being released.

The Patriots have just four players on the final injury report of the week, it was revealed Friday afternoon, with only cornerback Bradley Fletcher (hamstring) and defensive lineman Trey Flowers (knee) listed as questionable coming into Sunday's game against the Cowboys.

After perfect attendance at practice the last few days, it was also interesting to see that veteran offensive lineman Ryan Wendell, who has been dealing with what the team is calling an illness (which has kept him sidelined for the start of the 2015 season), has been upgraded to probable for this weekend.
Here's the full injury report:
CB Bradley Fletcher (hamstring — limited participation)
DL Trey Flowers (knee — limited participation)
CB Tarell Brown (foot — full participation)
OL Ryan Wendell (illness — full participation)

It's Friday, and that means it's time for some starts and a few sits. Week 5 will present some challenges to those who are hard hit by the first four-team bye week of the season. I'm sure there also are a few teams playing for their fantasy lives. Hopefully we don't have many 0-4 squads out there, but if that's where you are, there's still hope. A little luck and some good preparation and you can get back into the race. Let's see if we can find a few good plays for you. If you are looking for information on a player not listed in this space, head over to Rotobahn this weekend and check out our lineup rankings. They will be fully updated by Saturday evening.
As always, I will be here at 11 a.m. for our weekly Sunday chat. Bring your lineup questions and I'll do my best to help. And don't forget to tune in to the Fantasy Football Hour this Sunday at 8 a.m. where Jim Hackett and I will discuss the hot Week 5 topics and crucial game day information.
Sam Bradford, Eagles vs. Saints
He's shaking the rust off and he has been able to stay healthy through four games. The 1-3 record is causing trouble in Philadelphia, but Bradford is in a position to get hot now, and this is a nice home matchup. He can be your QB1 in any league.
Blake Bortles, Jaguars at Buccaneers
Bortles has been a solid fantasy starter so far. Not spectacular, but solid. He has a chance to keep it going this week against a soft Bucs defense, and he is working well with his top two weapons, Allen Robinson and Allen Hurns.
Jameis Winston, Buccaneers vs. Jaguars
You throw to beat the Jaguars, and that's what the Bucs will try to do. Winston probably will get picked once or twice, but the numbers should be there at the end of the day. He has the weapons, with receivers like Mike Evans and Vincent Jackson, to post good numbers. He also has running backs who are dangerous after the catch.
Brandon Weeden, Cowboys vs. Patriots
He's underrated, but I don't like him against the Patriots in this spot. The Cowboys may be able to compete for a while in this game, but it will be by running the football, not by Weeden throwing the ball around. If Dez Bryant returns after the Cowboys' bye week, then you may see Weeden have some fantasy success. Avoid him for now, even on a tough week for quarterbacks.
T.J. Yeldon, Jaguars at Buccaneers
Yeldon has taken over the Jacksonville backfield lock, stock and barrel, but he hasn't found much fantasy success yet. That should change this week as he plays a Bucs team that has had big trouble stopping the run. Yeldon should get the touches, so he's a good play in any format as an RB2 or flex option.
Dion Lewis, Patriots at Cowboys
He's got his contract signed and I expect him to give the Patriots a nice return on their investment for as long as he can stay healthy. Lewis has always been a dynamic runner and a nice all-around talent. It's great to see him enjoying some extended health. I see no reason to shy away from him this week, especially in leagues with PPR scoring.
Ronnie Hillman, Broncos at Raiders
Both Broncos backs are playable this week against a Raiders team that will get worn down over the course of four quarters. Hillman might not be the starter, but he will play in an even timeshare with C.J. Anderson. In fact, last week, Hillman got more action near the goal line than Anderson did. Hillman is a worthy RB2 in all 12-team leagues and some smaller leagues as well.
Bishop Sankey, Titans vs. Bills
It's hard to trust Sankey at this point. The Titans are not committing to any one back right now, and Antonio Andrew was the guy getting the carries the last time the Titans played a game way back in Week 3. Sankey has had his moments, but he is a flex in large formats at best, and a risky one at that. He probably doesn't even belong on rosters in 10-team leagues.
John Brown, Cardinals at Lions
Brown's been held out of the end zone for three straight weeks, but I'd stick with him. The matchup this week is a good one, and Brown is seeing plenty of passes coming his way, including 10 targets in last weekend's game against the Rams.
Nelson Agholor, Eagles vs. Saints
He's coming off of his best game so far, which was good for 64 yards receiving. It may not seem like much, but it was big for the rookie after three weeks of making close to no impact. This week's matchup is a very good one. I see Agholor as a reasonable WR3 option in 12-team leagues.
Travis Benjamin, Browns at Ravens
Benjamin now is being used consistently, with 20 targets over the last two games. That makes him more predictable for fantasy purposes. He's developing some chemistry with quarterback Josh McCown, and he should make a solid WR3 option for Week 5.
Roddy White, Falcons vs. Washington
He's just not involved enough right now. White may be able to regain PPR value at some point, but right now he's not much of an option and should be avoided until he shows something.
Delanie Walker, Titans vs. Bills
Rex Ryan's defenses often struggle with tight ends, and that's one area where I expect the Titans to really go after the Bills this Sunday. If you play in a PPR league you get could get high-end results, but you can safely play Walker in all formats and league sizes this week.
Owen Daniels, Broncos at Raiders
This is as good as it gets from a matchup perspective, but that's not the only reason to play Daniels. He's been looking better with Peyton Manning the last two weeks. I would not be surprised if he made one or two trips to the end zone on Sunday.
Antonio Gates, Chargers vs. Steelers
He's fresh, after four weeks off, and he should pick up where he left off in 2014. Start Gates in 12-team leagues and anywhere else you need him. He won't need any time to get up to speed with Philip Rivers, who has been throwing to Gates for years.
Heath Miller, Steelers at Chargers
He's not as involved as he was early on, and he has no rapport with Michael Vick. I'd avoid Miller for now, even in bigger formats. He could get some of his value back when Ben Roethlisberger returns, but this is a week to avoid him.

Say that you've come up with a really nifty idea for a gizmo that would improve the lives of every human being on Earth and probably turn you into a gadzillionaire, too! Before you get too far into the fantasy, you need this extremely detailed and comprehensive guide to the process of getting a patent. This is not a small book, but it contains everything you need to know, including a lot of things you probably don't KNOW you need to know. Very detailed, with examples of forms you'll need, addresses and marketing advice, this is the complete guide you'll need to navigate this complex process from square one to gadzillionaire-ness! --This text refers to an alternate Paperback edition.
This is a revised and considerably enlarged edition of a book published in 1979 by McGraw-Hill ( LJ 7/79). It is more thorough and provides better coverage of peripheral topics (e.g, how to keep lab notebooks, marketing and licensing inventions) than Kenneth Norris's The Inventor's Guide to Low-Cost Patenting ( LJ 7/85). Norris, however, includes more extracts from relevant regulations and the Manual of Patent Examining Procedure. The heart of both books is the process of acquiring a patent: searching for "prior art," drafting claims and applications, making drawings and responding appropriately to "office actions" of the Patent and Trademark Office. Pressman writes well and formats the material for easy reference. Recommended for public libraries. Jack Ray, Loyola/Notre Dame Lib., Baltimore

The Coyotes vaulted into the division lead with a 4-1 victory over the St. Louis Blues, improving their record to 41-27-13 for 95 points. The Kings (40-27-14) have 94 points entering the conclusion of their home-and-home series against the Sharks at San Jose on Saturday, the final game of the NHLs regular season. The Sharks dropped to eighth Friday. Goaltender Mike Smith was sensational Friday for the Coyotes, who have won four consecutive games. The first-period goal he yielded to Patrik Berglund was the first scored against him in 234 minutes 25 seconds and ended a streak of 161 consecutive saves, an NHL record.

... my highlight of the night was just soaking in the Fourth of July spirit. I loved being part of the crowd as they sang along to songs of national pride. I only knew sweet Caroline and born in the USA LOL... I reflected on the remarkable trip Liam and I have been on so far, and feel blessed to have shared this wonderful adventure with him. I don't know if he's learnt the things I wished on my birthday, but I think when he is my age, he will look back and think the things I wished ...
Close only counts in horseshoes and hand grenades
After a sleepless 11 hour flight I arrived in San Francisco 3 hours after I had set off. My first bit of advice for anyone crossing the border into America is border control take themselves very, very seriously. They do not smile, they do not wish you a good trip. After an intense interrogation about who Ben was, what he did, how I knew him etc. he seemed satisfied that I was meeting a real person, and I was sent on my way.
Ben picked me ...
Last Day In Cali
Today was great! We went swimming and ate It's-It's (spelling?). We also played dress up with Jordan's old dance costumes and bridesmaids dresses! Livvy and I also looked through Roz's old jewelry and found really cool things. Tomorrow the temperature in the Nevada desert is supposed to be 108°...Yay?? ...
Pre trip planning - the adventure begins!
... to live in longer term. As a native Southern California girl, I always planned to retire in Mexico, but after traveling through South American and Europe, I think there are many places that would suit me just fine - lucky me, my significant other is also an adventurous sort. German by birth, he came here to the US in 1997 with a strong desire to live in a different culture. So far it's working well for him, and now we both are ready for a new ...

Disabled cruise ship breaks from Ala. mooring
Published April 3, 2013 2:24 pm
This is an archived article that was published on sltrib.com in 2013, and information in the article may be outdated. It is provided only for personal research purposes and may not be reprinted.
MOBILE, Ala. • Officials say a Carnival cruise ship that had been disabled for days in the Gulf of Mexico has broken away from its moorings in a Mobile, Ala. shipyard.
The U.S. Coast Guard tweeted Wednesday afternoon that high winds are likely to blame for the Triumph becoming dislodged.
Carnival spokesman Vance Gulliksen says the ship drifted and is resting against a cargo vessel. Gulliksen says tug boats and U.S. Coast Guard officials are on the scene.
The Triumph was disabled Feb. 10 by an engine fire that stranded thousands of passengers onboard for days in the Gulf.
It has been docked in Alabama since being towed to port.

Atlassian SourceTree is a free Git and Mercurial client for Windows.
Atlassian SourceTree is a free Git and Mercurial client for Mac.
gExec is a tool for running commands from a GUI. It presents the user with an entry field into which they can type their command and some toggle buttons for specifying how the command should be run. (I.e. in a terminal).
It features (normal, understandable, working) tab-completion, history list and options for running commands in a terminal emulator and/or the root user (via gksu).
gExec was created because I mainly use GTK programs, but I do not run Gnome (or at least not the panel). Instead I use WindowMaker. WindowMaker does have it's own run dialog, but it doesn't have tab-completion nor does it have a history, which is quite annoying. There are a bunch of third-party program lauchers available, but at the moment of writing none of them do what I want. So came about gExec.
In order to compile gExec, you will need:
- Gtk 2.0+ development headers
- Glib 2.0+ development headers
In order to run gExec, you will need:
- Gtk 2.0+ dynamically loadable libraries.
Compiling gExec is easy. Just type 'make' at the command line in the source directory.
gExec is composed of only a single binary. You can copy it to any destination on your system. May I suggest some directory that is in your path, like /usr/local/bin?
Typing 'make install' at the command line in the source directory will do just that. It copies the binary to /usr/local/bin. That's it. Nothing more, nothing less.
From the --help output:
Usage: gexec [OPTION...] - Interactive run dialog Help Options: -?, --help Show help options --help-all Show all help options --help-gtk Show GTK+ Options Application Options: -k, --keepopen Keep gExec open after executing a command --display=DISPLAY X display to use
gExec has a few configuration options which are stored in the file
This file will automically be created if not present the first time gExec is run. It can contain three options:
cmd_termemu=STRING (default: xterm -e %s ) cmd_su=STRING (default: gksu "%s" ) history_max=INT (default: 20 )
These options should be self-evident. Including a %s in the command will replace it with the command entered by the user in the program.
Please be careful about the construction of the commands for the terminal emulator and the SU program. Not all programs will work nicely together and some of the commands need to be carefully crafted taking in account quotes and other stuff. Frankly, changing any of these commands might open up a whole can of worms (which is why there isn't a configuration display). Use at your own risk.
Feedback / Contributing
Questions? Problems? Ideas? Visit this gExec's project page, where you can submit bugs/feature requests/questions, at:
Known bugs
This program is full of known bugs. Here are some of them:
- Running a command in both a terminal and as root fails (depending on the commands used).
- Usage of deprecated gtk_combo.
- Failure to execute a command via terminal or as root will go unnoticed.
Most of these bugs have a reason for not being fixed (and not even because I'm just a lazy bastard). Mostly the reason is that the bugs don't really matter in such a small program, solving the problem opens up new problems or the problem isn't gExec's in the first place.

Live updates: Israeli-Palestinian violence
Inside the hidden world of hostage taking
14 Apr 2011 17:01 GMT | Africa, Liberia
Bodies continue to litter the streets and there remains a shortage of supplies in parts of Ivory Coast's main city Abidjan, the International Committee for the Red Cross (ICRC) has reported.The ICRC said in a statement on Thursday that there was also evidence of widespread looting in the west of the country and "a massive inflow" of aid was urgently required.

"In several parts of the city, bodies still litter the streets," Dominique Liengme, the head of the ICRC delegation in Abidjan, said."Many who are injured or ill still cannot go to hospital because of the security situation, or because they lacktransportation. Medical facilities that are still functioning are overwhelmed, and they lack supplies and personnel. The organisation added that large numbers of people had been arrested in connection with the armed conflict over the past few days. An official in Geneva was unable to be more precise on the numbers and added that some of those arrested had since been released.The statement comes one day after Alassane Ouattara, the new president, promised to restore security and prosperity to a nation broken by civil war. Ouattara's rival Laurent Gbagbo was captured in Abidjan by forces loyal to Ouattara earlier this week, ending a power struggle that followed Gbagbo's refusal to accept that he lost last November's presidential election. The fighting that followed cost hundreds of lives, uprooted more than a million, according to the United Nations, and wrecked the economy of the world's number one cocoa exporter.Investigations continueThe ICRC said its officials had begun visiting detainees in Bouake in the north of the country in order to assess the treatment they receive and conditions of detention.It has also asked to be able to visit Gbagbo and his close relations, who were arrested on April 11.
The independent humanitarian agency reports its confidential findings on prisoners and their treatment only to detaining authorities.The ICRC said it had been able to improve water provision, sanitation and medical supply to Duekoue and Guiglo in western Ivory Coast where tens of thousands of displaced people are gathered.It has also helped some of the estimated 130,000 Ivorian refugees, who have fled to neighbouring Liberia since December, get back in contact with their families.

UN Millennium Development Goals replaced by new 'distraction gimmicks'
Patrick Bond (2015-09-30)

The Burkina Faso coup: An(other) opportunity to rethink the nation-state
Joshua Myers (2015-09-29)
cc RT The supposedly self-evident idea that the nation-state is the logical form of political organization for the destruction of colonialism and for the remaking of African lives is patently false. True African liberation will not occur within the colonial structures of power erected by – and inherited from - Empire.

cc LV Twenty-one years after the genocide, and despite a rosy picture created internationally of a healing nation, many Rwandan refugees are reluctant to return home for fear of persecution by the current regime. After those living in Zambia lost their official refugees status, Kigali is pursuing forced repatriation or issuance of Rwandan passports. Neither of these options is safe for the affected persons.

Ahmed M.I. Egal (2015-09-29)
cc SLM To much of the outside world, the self-declared republic of Somaliland is a success story that, although lacking international recognition, contrasts sharply with the collapsed nation of Somalia. Not so. In the past five years, the government of President Ahmed Mohamoud Silanyo has been engaged in a sustained campaign of self-enrichment and aggrandizement as it suppressed dissent and debased political debate through the overt promotion of tribal politics. The people must now mobilise to restore Somaliland to its founding tenets.

Student Referendum Frequently Asked Questions
On December 2nd, 2014 the decision was made to eliminate Football, Bowling & Rifle for financial reasons. Students, faculty, alumni, donors, city and government officials and business leaders in the community rallied and voiced their support to bring back the three athletic programs. The University then created an Athletic Task Force to review the issue in tandem with an independent consulting firm. As a result, a fundraising effort was put into motion. The Undergraduate Student Government Association at UAB pledged its support in the form of an additional $25 fee per semester, per student, to assist in the restoration. Other contributors include private individuals, organized groups, and the City of Birmingham. Other municipalities in Alabama also pledged support. The student contribution will be the single largest contribution to the effort.
For a downloadable version of the FAQs click here.
For a downloadable version of the FAQs click here.
- What are we voting on?
- A fundraising goal was set by the University in order to reinstate football, bowling, and rifle after the December decision to cut the programs. Many came together to reach this goal; however it could not be reached without student support. The student contribution is the single largest contribution to reinstating these sports.
- We are voting to solidify the students' role in the sustainability of the three returning sports by introducing a $25 per semester fee to be added to undergraduate students' tuition and fees.
- Why are we voting?
- We are voting to ensure that football, bowling, and rifle are sustainable in the future.
- This vote validates the student body's voice in the decision-making process surrounding their undergraduate experience.
- The USGA announced its support for bringing back these programs earlier this year, and the $25 amount was determined by the students. The student body is voting to ensure that everyone has a voice.
- What is this money specifically being used for?
- Any cost associated with sustaining and support the UAB Football, Bowling & Rifle programs.
- The funds will not be diverted towards any other athletic programs.
- If the administration would like to use the funds for something else, the decision must be approved by students.
- How long will this be in effect?
- The fee will be charged once per semester.
- A positive vote will result in a tuition bill being issued commencing this fall semester.
- What is the total amount of money raised?
- Roughly $700,00 per academic year.
- The student body will be the single largest contributor to the return of Football, Bowling, and Rifle.
- Why isn't football coming back in 2016 if I have to pay now?
- Fees must be collected to ensure that there is an adequate amount of funds when all three sports return. Collecting these fees will help facilitate decisions regarding facility enhancements, making sure that our programs are competitive within their respective conferences for year to come.
- Football and bowling are not returning immediately in order to provide sufficient time to recruit and train quality players to set the Blazers up for successful season upon the return of the sports.
- I don't attend sporting events; why should I pay?
- Supporting Athletics means supporting the university. This vote will help grow the university and student life. Successful athletic programs foster support for other UAB Programs.
- At similar peer universities, athletic programs are supported by Student Fees.
- Athletic traditions foster alumni and community support across all programs of UAB, spreading the impact across multiple facets of campus.
- Why can't the fee go towards building maintenance or building enhancements?
- The extra $25/semester/student will NOT support any of the Athletic Facility projects.
- There are funds already earmarked for building improvements on our campus.
- This fee is one way to ensure that funds do not have to be diverted from other initiatives to sustain Athletics.
- A strong athletic program will enhance other parts of campus.
- There are many plans currently in the works to upgrade buildings, which have their own projected budgets independent of this fee.
- Has President Watts and/or anyone else in the administration contributed money?
- Yes, President Watts and the cabinet members at UAB have all made leadership donations.
- Does any portion of the tuition and fees support Athletics at UAB?
- Yes currently about $159 per student per Fall and Spring semester is used to support Athletics. Because these fees support Athletics, Students can attend UAB regular season Athletic events using their UAB One-card.
